To me, its fruit is all about cherries and not so reminiscent of apples. It’s sweet and fruity and insistently metallic.Īlthough Déliria stays in the dessert category with Amour Nocturne, it is cooler, less creamy, less buttery, and not as bready. In a nutshell, Déliria is like eating a brandied cherry while holding an abraded silver spoon in your mouth. Thankfully, the fragrance isn’t as circus-friendly as its list of notes suggests. “Déliria” might be renamed "Deliriously Ill", judging from that list of notes. Still, $280? I’d go for Anima Dulcis instead to scratch that kind of perfume itch, but if you love a mouth-watering gourmand fragrance with an interesting twist, you should give this one a try.ĭéliria's notes include metallic, rum and gourmand notes, plus toffee apple and candy floss. I dabbed from a sample vial, but I imagine the spray would give vigorous sillage. The fragrance lasts a good long time on my skin. Some perfumers might have been tempted to toss in raspberries to make Amour Nocturne easier to love instantly, and patchouli to ground it, and I’m grateful Amour Nocturne didn’t go that way. This is my favorite part of Amour Nocturne. In style, it reminds me of the creamy-bready Arquiste Anima Dulcis without the alluring initial funk and with a dose of cedar.Īmour Nocturne starts off with an herbal kick that, I swear, hints of dill before diving into the gourmand territory of cream, buttery bread and tonka. Sharp, tangy cedar firmly cuts through what could otherwise be - and still will be to some people - a cloying composition. I’d love to see this painted by a Flemish master or maybe by a 1930s pulp noir cover artist. What Amour Nocturne smells like probably has been painted, but by Wayne Thiebaud. I see a cedar tree, a porcelain pitcher of steaming milk (couldn’t possibly be chilled milk), a small copper pan simmering with caramel, a cooling pistol, and stems of yellow Cattleya orchids tinged with magenta. ![]() L’Artisan describes the collection as “Three concepts, translating the extraordinary emotional power of fragrance, created without compromise, with master perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour.” They’re packaged in a larger, squat version of the perfume house’s classic columnar, heptagon 1 bottle and cost an eye-popping $280 each.Īmour Nocturne's listed notes are cedar, hot milk, caramel, gunpowder and orchid. This list of notes is so visual. L’Artisan Parfumeur released three fragrances in its Explosions d’Emotions collection: Amour Nocturne, Déliria, and Skin to Skin (which Robin will review later this week). They smell like sophisticated pastries steeped in liqueur - and for Déliria, sitting in a crimped foil holder. To me, that’s just what L’Artisan Parfumeur Explosions d’Emotions Amour Nocturne and Déliria do. But I wouldn’t have thought a perfumer's rendition of an emotional explosion would give off so much brioche and baba au rhum. Thanks for your patience, and see you all soon.I admit it: sometimes I do feel an “explosion of emotions” when I pass a bakery display case.

It kind of depends on how difficult this thing is to work out.
